1983 Nebraska Penn State

Nice video of 83 Kickoff Classic. My favorite uniforms. Also on the right side you should see a link to - Who is College Football's best team of all-time? and from there another to Best All Time Football Program.

I remember that game. PSU keyed on Rozier, and that was the only game that year he was held under 100 yards (He went on to win the Heisman.). But everything else sure was clicking that day on offense. The defense even looked good. That offense perhaps could rank as the greatest ever in Husker history, even with the great N.C. teams of the '90s. But the defense that year was one of Osborne's worst, which anything cost him the N.C. in the Orange Bowl against Miami. Irving Fryer was one of the two greatest WRs we ever had -- the other guy, Rodgers. Some of you might recall Gill, Rozier and Fryer were called the Triplets.

I was only 5 months old when this game aired. Great to see all the highlights from it. By the way I though someone was suppose to do a position by bosition break down of the 83 team vs the 95 team whatever happened to that?

like those jerseys, as well. was that curt gowdy announcing? sounded like him.

I don't know who Curt Gowdy is but I'm pretty sure one of the announcers was none other then Lee Corso. It sure sounded just like Corso.

It did sound like Lee Corso. But I'm pretty sure Corso was still coaching then.

Just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came. And the grasshopper died. And the octopus ate all his acorns. Also he got a race car. Is any of this getting through to you?

Sure enough. That was Corso alright. But he was still coaching. Lee Corso coached Northern Illinois to a 4-6-1 record in 1984. link

Man oh man I remember this game. It was about my third year following the Huskers. I still remember my dad smacking an old orange fold up chair with the flyswatter when PSU got that late touchdown. And I do like the uni's, but I HATE not having the names on the jerseys.

wow! i know this is a very old man thing to say, but the fact that someone (e.g. the person that found this link) either knew about this link or merely searched for it and easily found it on the internet still amazes me.

The power of Google....I'm guessing that it took a little while to compile the list though.
